 Home and His Body is Found Float-
 ing i'm a POnd-A Verdict of Acci-
 dental Drowning Returned.
 SEYMOUR, July 19.-The body of John Nagle was found in Fail Pond, here, this afternoon. Nagle had been missing from his home since last Sunday afternoon He was about sixty years of age, and on Saturday hired team to drive to Southbury At 9 o'clock Saturday night he was seen driving along the road short distance from Sey- mour, and at midnight was seen on the road to Beacon Falls. Yesterday his horse re- turned to Seymour, and on the seat of the wagon were several spots which had the ap- pearance of blood. The spots strengthened the belief of his friends that he had been murdered, and searching parties were organs ized to search for the body. It was learned afterwards that acquaintances had seen him on Sunday leading his horse along and look ing dazed and queer, and had advised him to go back to his house and rest. This was the last seen of him alive as far as known. The next thing was the finding of his hat floating in the water and the search for the body. Medical Examiner Kendall examined the re mains with Dr. Pulford, and rendered ver- dict of accidental drowning. Deceased lost his wife several years ago, and had not seem- ed like himself at times. He leaves three daughters and one son.

THE YACHT FLEETS.

The White-Wfnged Flyers From New
 York are Joined by the New Haven
 Club at Stony Creek, and Together
 They Arrive at New London at Dusk
 A Hop I'm Their Honor at the Fort
 Gr1swo1d House.
 NEW LONDON, July 19.-Shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon the boom of cannon announced the arrival of the Atlantic Yacht club, accompanied by the New Haven Yacht club. The club has been detained by bad weather, otherwise they would have spread their waving canvas in the harbor on Mon day, the 18th. A southerly and southwest erly breeze and flood tide made their keels hiss to-day as they speed along New Lon- don's spacious harbor. It was evident from the difference in the time of the arrival of the fleet that there must have been mate- rial variance in the time of starting. All the yachts arrived by evening. Apleasant hop arranged in their honor took place at the Fort Griswold House tonight. A member of the club said of the trip from New Haven to-day: "It was gallant sea ride, and the ripple around fifty rushing keels must have made old Neptune smile as he hearkened flown below"

Wagon Struck by a Shore Lime
 Train at Clinton Avenue Yesterday
 Morning.
 A driver of one of Thomas filling & Go. $ heavy wagons came very near losing his life at the Clinton avenue crossing of the Shore Line road yesterday morning about quarter past eleven o'clock. The driver was coming down Clinton avenue driving large chestnut horse just as the 11:05 8. m. train was slow ing up to stop at the Fair Haven station The driver, thinking he had time to cross before the train arrived, started to do so, but the next instant the driver found himself on his back in the roadway, the wagon on the sidewalk and the horse entirely freed from the shafts, trying to climb 8 neighboring fence The train t1 -" "'h"cA tne rear wueei or the wagon, breaking it and causing the foregoing accident. The train was stop- ped and the man arose as white as a ghost. but uninjured, having had a narrow escape, for had the train not been slowing down it would have surely struck the horse instead of the rear end of the wagon

 MT. A. Moore arrived home from his two months trip to Europe on Sunday in the steamship Etruria. Yesterday he visited the manufactory of Peck Bros. & Co.,, where he years, and shook hands with every employe, from whom he received cordial and hearty greeting.

OLD HIRAM.

 nIon Iun aAs MI ,,.1.a-.n.an nsAI

A Floating Rumor as to n Large Defec-
 ton In its MembershIp Denied.
 An article in yesterdays Union says: 'There has recently some one hundred mem- bers withdrawn from Old Hiram No. by demit" The falsity of that assertion can be learned anytime by visiting any of Hiram lodge officers, as document of allegiance to Hiram lodge has just been thoroughly circu- lated in the lodge and signed by nearly all the members in this city-very few refusing to sign, and they were mostly young mem- bers and very fresh in the order The doc ument for Hiram lodge is headed by ex
 Gov. Harrison, Hon. Colin M. Inpersoll. Prof. Johnson T. Platt, U. s. Senator Blodgett of New Jersey, Anson T. Colt of New York (who joined in 1894 and was nnas- ter of the lodge in 1855, John c. Anderson, Joel A. Sperry and host of other well known men of prominence, many of whom have been members of this venerable lodge for many years and propose to continue sc. As soon as the list is completed it will probably be published, and there are 800 members in Old Hiram now and large num- bers are continually applying for member ship and being worked in as fast as possible The unlooked-for prosperity of Hiram lodge by the Grand lodge followers since the un. Masonic raid was made has caused many false statements to be circulated by some who are far from being in any way connect ed with Old Hiram No. 1. On the other hand quite number of the members of other lodges in this city have declared that they will take demits and join Hiram lodge as soon as the other lodges leave Masonic Temple, as they have signified their inteu. tion of doing August 1. And so the good | work goes on. MASON.
